Hey…
I know, I know. Right about now you’re gathering all of your final ingredients and probably have pies in the oven in anticipation of tomorrow, Thanksgiving!!
But here’s a quick, easy, unexpected twist on the flavors of the day! And especially perfect if you have a guest with gluten sensitivity.
In honor of Hanukkah, you can use kasha instead of quinoa. Either way, I am not exaggerating when I say you will want to GOBBLE it up immediately!
Have a beautiful holiday!
Love, Annette
Spicy Apple Cran Pecan Quinoa
- 1 apple peeled & cubed (I used Cortland)
- 1 shallot diced
- 1/2 cup fresh sage (chopped)
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley (chopped)
- 1/2 cup chopped pecans
- 1/2 cup dried cranberries/craisins
- 1 tsp curry powder
- 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 cup quinoa
- 2 tbsp. olive oil
- salt & pepper to taste
- Prepare quinoa according to package instructions. Set aside.
- Drizzle olive oil in a sauté pan. Add shallots & apple, sauté over medium heat until shallots become translucent & apple softens. Stir in herbs, pecans, dried cranberries, & spices (adjust to taste as preferred).
- Once fully combined, mix in the cooked quinoa. Let cook, mixing, for about 5 minutes until evenly blended. Plate and serve.
